The new series tackles topics like grief, immigration reform, sexual identity and gentrification through the experiences of two Latinx sisters, Emma (Mishel Prada, “Tell Me How I Die”) and Lyn (Melissa Barrera, “Tanto Amor”). Latinx writer Tanya Saracho created "Vida" with the first documented all-Latinx writers' room in Hollywood. The show also stars Ser Anzoategui, a nonbinary actor who uses they/them pronouns off camera, as the partner of the sisters' deceased mother.

Watch "Vida" above via the Starz YouTube channel, or stream it at Starz.com.
